B.B.'s Lawnside BBQ

This is your no frills classic bbq joint. Checkered table covers, communal tables, bbq, & lots of noise. They have a large lot for parking. When you walk in it’s furnished like a dining hall with large long tables and a bar along the wall. There’s also outside patio seating as well. This is a great place to hang with a larger group & listen to some live music. Unfortunately the food was really a miss for me. We ordered the pork belly burnt end potato skins, jambalaya, chicken wings, burnt ends with potato salad & beans, and ribs. I would not recommend the jambalaya, it did not have any creole flavors to it or color. I also didn’t care for the potato salad, it was missing that tang. I was also disappointed with the burnt end potato skins as they took out majority of the potato so it was tr

The BBQ was very good ! But what makes this place great is the atmosphere. I was there for open mic Saturday afternoon and it was difficult to fine seating. This is a great place to bring a family if you enjoy live music in an intimate setting. All the musicians were very talented and the BBQ Was top notch. The service was slow but likely because the place was packed.

This place is a hidden gem. Can't believe we have not been before. We sat on the porch on a beautiful day. Service was excellent and quick. The skillet fries are KC BBQ fry top 3 Contenders. The burnt ends were perfect, smoke ring, char, and yet still melt in your mouth. Will be back to try the rest of the menu. Kids meal would feed two adults. The ranch beans are great. The sauce is by far the sweetest KC sauce, but has a bit of spice bite on the hot sauce. Gonna guess they order brown sugar on a pallet.

It was my first time in this bar. I was visiting from England. I had the BEST time. From the moment we walked Katy, our server,had us in stitches which her sense of humour. Her service was the best I had during my two week stay. The food was yummy too! But the music! Being English, I hadn't heard of Brody Buster. Now, I'll never forget him. What a talent. What a nice man! Made my trip even better than it already was.

This place is fantastic!!! Be sure to try and make it in On a Tuesday through Saturday to catch the live Blues... I got Charged a $7 Cover for the band after 7pm.. Well worth it!!!! The barbecue was as good if not better than most the places here in Kansas City.. And I don't believe anyone can top their bread pudding??? Do yourself a favor and get the bread pudding it is to die for!!!!!!!!
